These one-day seminars will cover aero and vibro acoustic
theory and an overview of the primary numerical methods for
acoustic simulation including BEM, FEM, SEA and Ray Tracing.
They will include the most important acoustic concepts and
the physics underlying the most commonly used software tools
in acoustic engineering.

Description:

    

Please join us for one of our upcoming Acoustic Theory and    

Numerical Simulation Seminars with Dr. Jean-Louis Migeot,    

co-founder and CEO of Free Field Technologies, an MSC    

Software Company.    

    

These one-day seminars will cover aero and vibro acoustic    

theory and an overview of the primary numerical methods for    

acoustic simulation including BEM, FEM, SEA and Ray Tracing.    

 They will include the most important acoustic concepts and    

the physics underlying the most commonly used software tools    

in acoustic engineering. The course material draws from    

Jean-Louis' teaching experience as well as from the long    

list of acoustic engineering projects he conducted with his    

team over the last 20 years for a wide variety of industries.    

The following topics will be discussed in these free one-day    

technical seminars:    

1.  Introduction to Acoustics    

2.  The Six Key Acoustic Phenomena    

3.  Vibro-acoustics     	    

4.  Aero-acoustics    

5.  Numerical Methods in Acoustic     

    

About the Presenter:     

Dr. Jean-Louis Migeot is the co-founder and CEO of Free    

Field Technologies, the acoustic CAE company that recently    

joined the MSC Software group. He has devoted his career to    

the numerical simulation of noise and vibration problems    

after earning his MS, MBA and PhD at the University of    

Brussels. He first joined Structural Dynamics Research    

Corporation, then was a co-founder of Numerical Integration    

Technologies, the original creator of SYSNOISE acoustic CAE    

software. In 1998 he co-founded Free Field Technologies, SA    

in Brussels, Belgium together with Jean-Pierre Coyette,    

where they created Actran acoustic CAE software and    

developed it for the past 13 years into the global technical    

leader for acoustic simulation.    

    

Jean-Louis is also a professor of Acoustical Engineering at    

the University of Brussels. He has published numerous    

technical papers in journals and conference proceedings. He    

is currently a Vice-Director at the Belgian Royal Academy of    

Arts and Sciences.
